Former White House adviser Peter Navarro reported to prison Tuesday for a contempt of Congress conviction, becoming the first senior Trump administration official to be locked up for a crime related to the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack.
Navarro was sentenced to four months in prison for defying a subpoena for documents and a deposition from the House committee that investigated the riot by supporters of then-President Donald Trump.
Navarro was defiant in remarks to reporters before he headed to the federal prison in Miami, calling his conviction the “partisan weaponization of the judicial system.”
First of many, we hope…
Weird how you can go to prison faster for not showing up in court than attempting to undermine a country. Let’s hope it’s his first sentence, then.
It’s not like he tried to push green energy or UBI, he’s not changing the status quo by undermining an election, just stepping on the peon voters.
Only because the dumbass refused a congressional subpoena.
While the subpoena was related to the Jan 6 investigation; ultimately that’s not why he’s going to jail. He’s going to jail because he didn’t show up and profess a shitty memory,
… in an upscale, white collar, min security facility. I’m sure they’ll keep him busy with macrame projects and and an editor spot on the prison paper.
Wasn’t this the trade advisor that Donnie Jr found by searching “economy” on Amazon books and choosing the first author they found who also had no education in economics at all?
